Site Upgrade

June 14, 2009

Andes Aerial

As you can see, peciva.com has had a slight upgrade. (Reading the news feed? Take the site for a spin.) Among the improvements: Integrated photo galleries, integrated Twitter feed, and much less blue and orange.

A few things to look out for: In the new Photography section, you can now hit the “View Slideshow” link in any Gallery to enjoy higher resolution images. If you know what you’re looking for, you can Search for specific images. And if you’re an image buyer, you can now sign up for a free PhotoShelter account, create lightboxes and purchase rights managed licenses, all without leaving the site.

For the blog, the new widescreen format should allow for bigger photos and better formatting of content. The idea is to publish slightly beefier blog posts, while moving the quick updates to Twitter. Don’t have a Twitter profile? No problem: My Twitter feed will also appear on Facebook, and in the sidebar on all blog and Archive pages.

That’s just about it. Take the new site for a spin, and please let me know what you think!

Oh, and the photo shows a rugged section of the Andes, halfway between Santiago and Mendoza.
